Day 243 Congratulations to Mr & Mrs Bertram

This looks like it will be my last wedding of the year and it was a lovely day, so a nice way to finish off.

Sarah is the sort of personality who lights up a room with her genuine warmth and Steve is the sort of guy who is so laid back he is horizontal. A very nice couple who are very much in love.

Work again tomorrow so expect a picture of my breakfast or something!

Day 242 - Kinnears secret weapon

He plans to send her into the opposition dressing room and talk them to death!

As you can see, eventually she had good fun and finished the week off. Her favourite bit were the matches that they had at the end of each day. For me it was just nice to see her running around being a kid!

And that pretty much ends the summer holidays, what a roller coaster ride it has been, we have managed to get plenty done despite not having the joy of being off the whole holidays.

Day 241 - Farewell

The world is a poorer place without Wyn in it, but I feel truly blessed to have known her, loved her and be loved by her.
I've been sat here for 20 minutes trying to put into words how I feel, and how much Wyn will be missed, and how great she was, but words simply cannot do this woman justice.
Her legacy is her family and I know she wouldn't have it any other way. The whole family are some of the nicest most genuine people you could ever have the pleasure of meeting, the sort of people you cannot see for years and then within 30 seconds of meeting up you are deep in conversation as if only momentarily interrupted.

Judy and Steve have very kindly donated one of Wyn's beloved teddy's to my daughter, who upon receiving it, without prompting said 'Daddy I think it would be nice to call the bear Wyn' and so I present to you the latest addition to our family, Wyn.

R.I.P , gone but never ever forgotten.

Day 240 Fields of Gold

Today and tomorrow are going to be very hectic indeed I have headed down to Cambridgeshire to bid and old friend farewell. The whole are is surrounded by fields of gold. It really is a beautiful part of the world.

Apologies for the lack of blog today but I have other things on my mind.

Day 239 Roses are Red

Violets are blue, Erin spent her pocket money on you! Only if you are Christine though

She really is an absolute gem when she wants to be!

Day 238 Tried and Tested

Back to work today after 15 days off, the least said about that the better.

On my home the sun was ridiculously low in the sky and a big red ball of awesome.

Hopefully you can make it out on this picture.

Off to watch the footie now.

Day 237 - Chip off the old block.

There are moments where as a parent you swell with pride, and all those moments of stress and anxiety and heartache are worth it.

I'm lucky in that I have had 3 of these moments within 3 days, sometimes I can go for weeks without them!

That said I would never ever discourage Erin from just being a child and enjoying that too!

Sadly this will be our last day out this summer holidays as a full family, I may manage to squeeze out one more day with Erin the day before she goes back, but thats it for us as a family. Its been a blast!
